db425334e5 Tools: hv: Fully support the new KVP verbs in the user level daemon
Now fully support the new KVP messages in the user level daemon. Hyper-V defines
multiple persistent pools to which the host can write/read/modify KVP tuples.
In this patch we implement a file for each specified pool, where the KVP tuples
will be stored in the guest.

fa3d5b85c6 Drivers: hv: Support the newly introduced KVP messages in the driver
Support the newly defined KVP message types. It turns out that the host
pushes a set of standard key value pairs as soon as the guest opens the KVP channel.
Since we cannot handle these tuples until the user level daemon loads up, defer
reading the KVP channel until the user level daemon is launched.

46a9719136 Staging: hv: move hyperv code out of staging directory
After many years wandering the desert, it is finally time for the
Microsoft HyperV code to move out of the staging directory.  Or at least
the core hyperv bus code, and the utility driver, the rest still have
some review to get through by the various subsystem maintainers.
